  • From the creator of Gravity Blanket, Moon Pod is a malleable bean bag that can be used in three different positions. We tested it.

    Just got mine in the mail today. Total waste of money! No "weightless" feeling at all. Have you ever sat in a bean bag ever? Yeah. It feels like that.

    I can hear the sound it makes when the guy sits in it, it sounds exactly like it’s full of styrofoam like a regular beanbag. Lol $400. What hucksters.

    In a no pet, no child, 1 person household: the zipper broke when putting the cover on as directed, and the inner bag seam broke within three months making the harder pellets spread under the spandex becoming very uncomfortable and sharp. Basically if you pay 300$ for a moron pod, you are paying 100$ a month for a crappy beanbag. Truth!

    I puffed many a doob sprawled out in dorm beanbags in the early 1970's. They were somewhat trendy and definitely provided a wonderfully comfy place to buzz-crash for the first few months. 6 months later they all seem to end up dirty, mushed out....and soon on their way to Goodwill or the landfill. Those things will remain a fond memory of my growing up....but that's it.

      Well Gravity Blanket is basically just a weighted blanket that you can find from many different sellers on Amazon. He just repackaged it and gave it a better name. This is basically just a bean bag rebranded to be called a Moon Pod.

      I came here looking to see how in the heck you get out of it! I see the commercials on TV all the time and for me with lower back pain and a few knee issues, I'm skeptical of something that low to the ground being helpful. There's a short clip of someone in the video getting up out of it and the weird frog squat she had to do makes this an automatic no-go.

    i would never purchase from Moonpod again nor would i recommend friends or family to purchase.
    purchased the full moon bundle ($500+), FedEx “lost” Crescent pillow. Reached out to Moonpod via email (no direct number). was told representative would email me back. never did.
    had to reach out to Protection Plan company just to contact Moonpod + only then did Moonpod contact me. said they would ship out replacement. asked for tracking number….im still waiting for tracking number. and, Moonpod NEVER emailed me tracking number for first order. now this headache.
    might be a great product but as a business owner i say this all the time - folk don’t leave a company because of product; they leave because of poor customer service.
    Moonpod, ur customer service sucks.
